Symptoms

When an invoice line is imported with project information the default account is defaulted based on the project setup.
However, if the project information is modified (Project Number/Task/Expenditure information) the default account is not changed to match.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. From a Payables responsibility navigate to Invoices -> Entry -> Invoices
2. Enter in Invoice Header information
3. Click on lines tab
4. Enter in line information including project information that is invalid
5. Click on Actions -> validate
6. If the project information was invalid the validation will fail but the invoice line will have defaulted a distribution account
7. Correct the project information, but leave the default account as is
8. Click on Actions -> validate
9. This will validate the invoice but will use the wrong account as the default account did not change to match the project.
